I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cognizant (Bengaluru) in Nov 2020
Interview
It was pretty good. Interviewer gave some puzzles to solve and a program as well. Once this is done started with self introduction then they questioned regarding projects and internships (which was mentioned in resume) and basics of programming languages (c, C++, dbms, sql). Then one must be aware of recent technologies and development.
